4. Charles Barkley

It's fun these days to joke around about the affable Barkley, but make no mistake about it, he was a beast back in the day.

Despite being only about 6'4", he led the league in rebounding and finished with career averages of 22.1 points and 11.7 rebounds per game.

He played the game with such passion and pride, it was so hard not to love his style.

The one mark on his record is the fact that he didn't win a championship. But in 1993, he did everything he could with the exception being not kidnapping Michael Jordan in a year in which he won the MVP.
